Basics

This class worked on big-punch defense with a take down.  From the guard, we worked on finishing the americana and taking the back.

I tapped twice today.  Once was to a guillotine from a failed shot.  My opponent said that he hits that a lot, so it was hard to feel bad about getting caught in a guy's money move.  The second tap came from a less-than-perfect triangle.  A bud and I worked some stand up; I hit a decent throw and landed in mount.  We, then, stood up and worked some more take downs.  He pulled me into an armbar which I defended, but he had my sleeve.  From there, he worked into a triangle.  I really didn't want to tap, but it was claustrophobic; I bailed.

PS.  I won my third match on points.

Goals

I wonder if it would be possible to get a stripe on my bjj belt and advance to Sankyu in Judo by the end of Summer.  I also want to move down 2 weight classes to medium heavy.

I want to compete in 2 grappling tournaments and 2 Judo tournaments by the end or 2012.
